#run home slow

[melancholysunrise]

Is that rain?

Or are you crying again?

Would it be the same if I could hold you my friend?

I know it's hard to be alone

A soul with no face is a lonely embrace

I know it's hard

[tenebrous-academic]

The love growing between Buck and Tommy is slow and gentle. It’s not a raging inferno, engulfing both of them until only embers and ashes are left. It won’t flash over and burn out once there’s nothing left to consume.

Instead, it’s being nurtured slowly.

Kindling is added with each smile and shy glace. Small sparks crackling with every daring touch shared between them.

This is the slowest Buck has ever gone in a relationship and it feels so right. It’s a kind of love that’s warm and inviting. It has the potential to weather storms and keep them safe even in the darkest hours. It’s a love they have to keep together, to keep it from becoming smothered and extinguished.

It’s an act of patience and tenderness to keep their love growing. Slowly, but surely.

Yes, it can still burn and scorch, but it can also offer solace and comfort. It’s a love that belongs to them. To keep and safeguard. It’s a love that both of them have been searching for their entire lives.

#was the fire metaphor too heavy handed? #I don’t care I’m running with it #because I can’t stop thinking about what they’re building together #it’s slow and it’s SPECIAL #it belongs to them #buck is keeping it to himself #just for now #just while it’s theirs #it’s so new and delicate #and could so easily be extinguished in those first few fledgling months #they’re creating something that will last a life time #and that takes patience and care #it’s a love that can live in a hearth and make it their home #those two are getting married I stg #911 abc #9 1 1 abc #tommy kinard #bucktommy #evan buckley #evan buck buckely #tevan #kinley #firefly #firecopter #kinkley

#meraki mumbles #baseball octavinelle hitting home runs always!!!!! #KYAAAAA AND THE EXPRESSIONS....... >w< it's too good... #but also the 'i am hungry!!!' with halloween jade and azul!!!! omg that is such a jade song #the metaphor for loving someone so much you swallow them whole but also just being so monstrously hungry for things aside from food #'i love you so much i could eat you' but with jade such a phrase could be true because he finds it morbidly romantic #what if...... a fic where jade eats you..... and not as a metaphor for sex......... >:) #basically sk jade but without the slow burn (i.e. he does eat you) #i want to ramble about yan!jade and the concept of monstrous love AAAAAAA i could write an entire paper on it #he's so *squeezes him* !!!!!!! >:(

ok we did some cooking here

AFK Arena - Forbidden Family Odyssey AU !

Premise:

The Invasion upon Gavus and Eugene's family home proved... semi-successful. Eugene had been captured, and Liberta was acquired quickly by the Goddess, Morgana, but Gavus managed to escape with Lucilla. 10 years later, imprisoned, Eugene catches wind of a suspicious lack of guards. Using his wits, and some of his power, Eugene broke out and began his run for home.

Unluckily... He runs right into a Commander Dawn and the kid's Adventurer companion, and that's only the START of his bad luck on this journey. Let's hope that this journey home doesn't take a ridiculously long time! (It does.) (Horrendously so.)

--

So !!! AU time !!!

Eugene (and somewhat Liberta) - Odysseus's role

Gavus - Penelope

Lucilla - Telemachus

The idea is that Eugene and Liberta were both taken when Conrad and Morgana made an... oh-so "civil" visit to the family home. Liberta, who has no memories unsealed because he never fought Lucilla, is taking the company of soldiers back home with the Adventurer he befriended when they run into Eugene. After a brief fight, Liberta and the Adventurer put 2 and 2 together and realize this is the same Eugene from the diary, and they propose to help him get home (much to the issue of .... literally every soldier there but that comes up later<3)

Essentially, this AU will focus on four-ish storylines... sort of?:

Eugene's story on getting home, his journey back to his family and all the perils it will have.

Liberta's story on finding out who he is, because Lucilla never fought Liberta, undoing the seal is taking a long ass time. He will be named "Commander Dawn" until a certain point in this AU

Gavus's story on protecting Lucilla, since the Hypogeans didn't really stop after they didn't get their Weapon.

Lucilla's story on finding out where her brother and father are, since she wants to see her papa happy again, and he's always looking mournfully at a red diary.

Will I make a fanfic ??? Possibly !!! It's sitting in my mind a lot and I have a bit of the story figured out, but I also might just leave this as a Tumblr-only AU where I just occasionally post content for it instead depending on where my whims take me.

Now, there is a whole lot more planned out for this AU [just not... indetail bUT I HAVE BARE BONES] so if you have any questions, I am more than happy to answer!

take this concept eugene art as compensation for ur time

thank you!

#afk arena #afk eugene #afk liberta #afk gavus #afk lucilla #adventurer ??? is also here #i should clarify: the adventurer here is the one from the war of truth #don't get attached #they serve as liberta's best friend in this au and they do not live long #Eugene has an Idea that Commander Dawn might be his missing son (It's kind of obvious from the get go) but #Commander Dawn has NO memory of Eugene and anytime Eugene tries to talk to him about it #boom migraine #very frustrating #Gavus meanwhile is trying to ward off Hypogeans #He doesn't want to lose his daughter the same way he lost his son and husband #poor guy keeps getting harassed every day someone help him #Lucilla's trying but she also wants to leave so she can find Eugene and Liberta and make Gavus happy again #this is slow burn and also constant whacking with the stick #Eugene “Finally we can Go Home” #Liberta running away from Conrad “DURA ABOVE STOP JINXING IT.” #oh right before i forget: the lack of guards is from war of truth also #bc they don't have Lucilla

The story of the day Blu went through the window! Apparently he heard a car alarm making that chirp sound when it is set, and he was in the back of the house so he got some speed up running to the front window! My neighbors were out there and saw him shake off the glass in his hair, then proceed to run across the street only to find that nothing of importance was happening. I am always scared he will just push so hard on the tempered glass that it will pop out. He only got a teeny cut on his hip.

#blu❤️ #dogs #if i am home and he starts running towards the window i just yell “SLOW DOWN!!!” #the surprise of me yelling always works #distraction technique

Can anyone recommend a good brand of grippy sock/tight slipper? No; not for that reason. I’m kinda eh mentally but not necessarily in crisis (yet)…

The fake hardwood floors in this apartment are literal sensory hell to walk on. I can’t take my socks off and walk barefoot on them for two seconds without getting the worst fucking joint cramps in my hands and feet I’ve ever felt in my life. It’s like insta-gout, just add naked toes; but I don’t actually have gout (thank god)… it’s SOLELY from the texture of the floor. I’ve been wearing the same vampire bat socks for four days because I can’t bear to remove them unless my feet have been soaked in hot water before.

Also, the vampire bat socks for your amusement because the little guy is cute:

#sensory processing disorder #I’ve never used that label before but I’m just gonna call it for what it is. I rub wire sanding discs and steel scourers like worry stones #and run the back of my nails on the walls when I walk down hallways despite it being a very bad example for the children #I chew on my hands and scratch my face and neck constantly. I grind my nails into my fingertips. #I constantly touched little old ladies’ fancy clothes and jewelry and played with babies’ fingernails as a kid #I have to touch everything within arm’s reach at the store to test it for quality even if I don’t want it #I don’t like turning on air vents for the bathroom and kitchen or playing certain instruments because they’re too loud #I flick my nails and wring my hands and sniff random items and purposefully eat bland foods so I can feel the texture better #I’ve taken home fresh dinner rolls from the buffet and used them as slow-rising stress balls for two hours before eating them #and I thought walking up a shag carpet staircase in bare feet was a bad texture #These floors are downright SADISTIC #ugh ugh ugh when I get a real house there will only be ceramic tile on the floors #yes in the bedrooms as well. I don’t care. Freeze your feet off.

I love learning ASL it’s so good. Makes me happy to learn it. I’m so glad my university has classes for it with professors actually steeped in Deaf culture.

#blue chatter #am I good at ASL? hahahahahahaha. no. #ASL and English grammar are incredibly different and even when I remember my vocab I am easily clockable as hearing #but I do have some language capacity now. enough to communicate the basics. #and I just. genuinely really enjoy it. it’s fun to learn and engaging in a way most of my classes just aren’t. #and I can. yanno. communicate respectfully w Deaf ppl. and learn about their culture #which is incredibly important given that I want to go into a field where there is a higher incidence than typical of Deaf people #autistic? you’re more likely to be Deaf! #not to mention the fact that sign language can sometimes be a useful alternative to speech for nonspeaking/nonverbal people #depending on the person obvi; some nonspeaking/nonverbal autistics cannot use sign language and that’s okay #but surely at some point I will encounter either a Deaf client or a nonspeaking/nonverbal client who uses ASL #and when that time comes I should have some idea of how to communicate with them #I also rly like the Deaf church by my parents’ house #their community is really welcoming and their services are really interesting #I think it’s rly cool how they take intentions directly from the congregation #they’ll raise their hands and then sign what their intention is from their pew to the ambo #which is rly neat #it is funny bc every time I go the Deaf ppl I talk to will tell each other ‘go slow she’s hearing’ #which is ENTIRELY fair bc. I am hearing. and I do need them to go slower. #but it also makes me laugh bc truly everyone knows within a few minutes. #oh hey the new person? they’re hearing. yeah they’re learning ASL at college. sign slowly for her. #which again makes sense bc a big Deaf culture thing is keeping ppl informed. it’s not gossip it’s getting everyone on the same page. #Deaf ppl do NOT beat around the bush that is like the height of rudeness to them. u say what u mean goshdangit. do not waste their time. #which I appreciate the heck out of bc i don’t have to try and phrase things delicately or w/e #it was also funny bc my mom came w me while I was home for Christmas and they asked her if I was her kid #and she said yes. and the lady running the kid’s craft corner thing was like ‘great you’re doing a craft now’ #and I’m sitting there. visibly over 18 years old. amongst several seven year olds. trying desperately to figure out how to say hot glue gun #I made a v pretty pinecone tree it was a lot of fun ^-^

Paper girls was one of the most honest genuine portrayals of being a 12 year old girl I've ever seen. Even apart for them fact all this shit is happening around them they are still 12 year olds with 12 year old problems.

The period scene in particular was one of the best, truest scenes I've ever seen. It was beautiful, funny, awkward. It was perfect. 

It is so fucking authentic. Everyone rightly leans on how powerful the performances are, but you also get such a range in the writing. The period scene, the sleepover scene, the gentle bickering, the in-your-face meltdowns, the gremlin run up the stairs--it's all so perfectly tuned to what kids are like. And it never talks down to them; the rare time an adult tries to imply a situation is over their heads, they're instantly shot down. Because kids around that age are smart. They're learning who they are, how the world works, what their individual moral compass looks like, and it means they don't get things right every time, but they're capable. They can in one moment be reassuring and kind, and the next snappish and closed-off. This show allows room for that without ever feeling like a deviation from character, which is...frankly really impressive.

It always strikes me--in the best way possible--that these girls are all allowed to be mean. They're allowed to be catty, to be vulgar, to say the wrong thing with good intentions (Tiff pointing out KJ's missed her puppy's whole life), or the barbed thing because they're just being a dick (Mac's "you don't have to talk all the time" followed by KJ snickering). They aren't forced into stereotypical boxes, true, but they also aren't forced to be Sweet and Pretty and Kind. They can be those things, sure; when Erin's falling apart, everyone's there to catch her, and when Tiff's walkies are stolen, Mac's got her back, and when Mac is facing mortality, KJ won't let her do it alone or give up on herself. But they're also not always gentle with one another. A lot of the time, they butt heads. Sometimes they punch each other in the face. Sometimes they have to apologize and mean it for the friendship to continue, and it strengthens their bond every time. Sometimes they're stupidly reckless, lobbing the single brain cell from one girl to the next: Tiff running after the backpack, Mac going off on her own in the middle of the night, KJ stealing the motorbike, Erin getting drunk at a party. And sometimes they're so level-headed in the face of panic. They are all allowed to be incredibly nuanced, so full of life and hope and fear and anger. They're never dumbed down, even when they act like dipshits. I cannot remember the last show that not only took into account what historical periods were actually like, but what young girls are actually like to this degree. I will be gutted if we don't get a pickup, because, Jesus, imagine the growth in coming seasons.

#ask #paper girls #paper girls spoilers #i am literally interested only in thinking about this show and my grief for it is enormous #the arcs! the depth and weight every character is given without ever feeling forced! #the plot is not without its flaws it's true--there are holes and some confusing elements #but i am so confident further seasons would smooth a lot of that out #the first run was about establishing this world and in the world of paper girls everything is so fucking bonkers #that what REALLY matters is these four kids #if we're not on board with them nothing else will ever stick #so the first season did the right thing. the smart thing. in fleshing out these flawed wonderful characters and making them so human #that even from their first scenes you have a sense of what you're working with--but you still only know enough to be hooked #and the rest of the season is about 'looking a little deeper' and seeing how many layers each of them possess #it's a slow burn without ever feeling slow and it doesn't talk down to them at all and i! am! furious! at the idea that it got cut short #i am absolutely praying legendary knows what they're doing #i mean. they've spent money retaining the rights right out the gate and announcing it's in need of a new home. that gives me some hope #i just really really want them to prove me right on that count #because these girls have so much further to fly and GOD this cast is perfect. i would be heartbroken to lose them after all they've given

3 weeks into my self prescribed running routine and i can now run for 1 of my 2.6 miles in the morning live laugh love <3

#thank you allie for the advice <3 #slow progress but progress nonetheless #i want to eventually be able to do those charity 5ks #my favorite part of running is getting home and eating all the food in my fridge and then the fridge itself

Also I can’t figure out if my life genuinely does suck or I’m just having an existential crisis because my period starts in approximately 48 hours

#it does make me worse ngl. i wish i could just yeet my uterus #i was just starting to think about how all my days are the same and it’s boring and i’m boring #and i never see anybody or meet new people or make new friends #working from home is all well and good until it makes you want to [redacted] #and you all can say ‘just leave your house!’ as much as you want but living in a small town and having no car is not really conducive #to getting myself out there #i mean my town literally has about a dozen businesses and half of them are sad pubs. the others are like hair salon; co-op; church; butcher #2 takeaways. and yeah there’s parks but all of them are kind of dire #maybe i could start getting the bus places. going somewhere else. idk #i have been thinking about taking a trip but wherever i go i still take myself and it’s like i’m in this state of permanent malaise #too nervous to talk to anyone and too impatient to linger anywhere or enjoy anything #everything i do i rush through so i can do something else #and i think amongst it all i’m just reckoning with the fact that i’m never going to be remarkable. i mean neither is anyone else really #but i always thought i’d write a novel or become a college professor or something but i’m not smart enough and i don’t have enough words #or ideas in me. not really. i’m not a creative i’m just an imitator. always have been #and i could live with being unremarkable because we all are in the cosmic universe but i still don’t think i can live with rotting #in my hometown. but then it’s like how do i get out? #i signed up for an online course just to vary things a bit. just to get some enrichment in my enclosure #it’s this slow realisation that i thought i Wanted to work at home. i thought i liked the peace of it. just me and the computer screen #but no i like to work outside and then come back to my home as my sanctuary. i have to leave it sometimes to really appreciate it #but no one wants to hire me for an intellectual job because i’m not actually that smart. and my body is too broken to work in hospitality #anymore. or is it. i mean for god’s sake i can run three times a week but i don’t trust myself to be able to stand for hours #i’m thinking about throwing myself on the mercy of my old boss like hey. i fucked up. do you have any shifts for me? i’ll do weekends #i just don’t want to lose my fucking mind #maybe i’ll text her tomorrow. the worst thing she can say is no #personal

IT IS DONE. I 100%'D SIDE ORDER IN EVERY POSSIBLE WAY. Cleared the tower with all palettes, bought all hacks, bought all items from Cipher, got the Low Hacks Eight badge, got all Jelleton entries, and got all chips entries as well as maxing out the chips that max out at ten and NOT five. My fastest clear is 17 minutes with DJ Octavio's palette, and highest score is Marina's palette with 83k points. My favorite palette and palette with the most clears is Frye's palette with 6 clears, and my least favorite palette is Big Man's palette with only a single clear, tied with Eight and Murch's palette for the spot of least clears, and my first clear was with Sheldon's palette.

Genuinely I could not be happier with Side Order. The only critiques I have are minor and not hugely impactful on how I feel about the DLC as a whole. Easily worth the money and despite the fact I've now done every conceivable thing the game has to offer in terms of completion, I absolutely expect to continue playing and having fun with it for a while further

#splatoon spoilers #side order spoilers #also GENERAL TIPS: if you struggle w aim or getting overwhelmed- go for drone chips- ESPECIALLY Inkstrike and Burst Bomb #Ink Saver/Main Firing Rate are your best friends. Always try and get either Crab Tank/Trizooka/Triple Inkstrike #Sprinkler is more useful than it seems and can easily slow and damage enemies- but I wouldn't recommend picking it up if u didnt start w it #Reefslider is better than it seems- as long as you have room to start up. That said- same as Sprinker- dont get it if you dont already have #Don't get too many homing shots chips unless youre trying to max for catalog. If you want homing shots- get only 2-3 #any more than that will be hell on earth if you get overwhelmed or need to paint zone #This does not apply to Tri-stringer however! Tri-stringer with max homing shots is fantastic given its tap shots- get some ink damage up th #For low hacks- keep on attack damage +2 and drone inkstrike- everything else turn off. If you get overwhelmed- step back and farm for items #For chips completion- keep common tone bias on for everything EXCEPT weapon specific chips (Splatling Barrage/Horizontal Slash Speed/ect) #For those- turn it completely off- none of the weapon specific chips line up with the common tones of their weapons #max out floor reset and vending machine reset hacks before starting that grind specifically- reset floors whenever you can afford it- #-to get the chips you need. DONT take vending machines until you get to the higher floors- its cheaper to gamble on floor resets- #-than it is vending machines- and you'll get membux even if you run out of money before getting the chip you need #and thats my general tips! if anyone has any actual like. questions or advice feel free to hmu ive sunk dozens of hours into Side Order LOL

Daytime me has always such high hopes for night shift me. When will she learn.

#for context I sometimes work nights as I am in healthcare #but I’m always like ‘ok if it’s slow I’ll work on research and after work I’ll go for a run and if I wake up early I’ll do x y or z) #like girl… you will be cranky and you will be lucky if you make it home without crashing your car much less actually being productive #and then like 3 days later I’m like ‘haha night shift isn’t bad! usually less busy and pays better! haha maybe I should do more of it’ #short term memory Queen #….if you can tell im working nights right now. its… hmm. #don’t worry patient care doesn’t suffer all my mental and emotional faculties go into doctoring #… #okay Anna stop posting on tumblr go see some patients
